Steve Allen - Steve Allen Plays Bossa Nova Jazz (1963 LP)

Accompanied by his all-star TV orchestra, Steve's piano brilliantly explores the new Brazilian rhythm. Co-featured are Bob Enevoldsen, playing magnificently on his tenor sax, and the incomparable guitarist Laurindo Almeida, one of the fathers of Bossa Nova. Twelve all-time favorite tunes, chosen especially for their adaptability to the jazz samba treatment, make this album a must.
